This is much more pleasingly abstract than I was expecting. They all hint at the originals but are their own thing.

Well, no. *clicks on link*
...and I was a fool for never wanting this in my life. Really fun.

Thanks for that link. The reference works are a breathtaking collection in their own right. Many pieces I've never seen before.
